All hail Cindy Jackson, a 55-year-old woman who's spent more than $100,000 on 52 rounds of plastic surgeries and "artificial enhancements," and actually doesn't look like a scary mush-faced cat lady...yet. The New York Post breathlessly chronicles her journey, correction, "transformation" of a "once-drab face and lumpy body into a classically beautiful masterpiece." Not only did Jackson use her talents as an art student to prevent her surgeries from becoming garish, or so Jackson and the Post claim, she's now a Guinness Record holder for "the most cosmetic procedures."

Typical, we suppose, for plastic surgery addicts, Jackson always thought she looked out of proportion and dowdy. Always. But in her "face book" of photos, her first picture, we think, is actually rather cute, while the last four place her firmly in Real Housewives of Orange County/done-up newscaster territory.

Among Jackson's surgeries that "would make a reality star drool" (ew): cheek implants, a chin reduction, two nose jobs, five face-lifts, and a reshaping of her jaw, which apparently hurt a lot. Also, liposuction to remove inner-knee fat, which will never come off with a diet, plus Botox, chemical peels, filler in her hands....and so on.

"It looks fantastic, and it's taken 10 to 15 years off of my hands," she said. The only feature left on her face that she was born with is her dimples.

We are supposed to admire this woman for her 52 plastic surgeries that don't make her look completely freakish and awful, and for transforming her obsession into a fabulous, lucrative job as a cosmetic-surgery consultant and author. Instead we just feel...sad.

Jackson has a boyfriend, but it's not serious, because she is obviously deeply in love with plastic surgery.

I’ve watched some of her interviews online, and I think her commitment to plastic surgery is one of a kind. Last time I checked, it’s actually 55 rounds of procedures! I can actually see Barbie on her face… It’s prolly her inspiration. I don’t remember her mentioning it in her interviews, did she?

I believe in being open-minded and as long as you're not hurting anyone, do whatever floats your boat. I used to be very vain about my looks and although I am still vain to a certain point, I am not nearly as vain as I used to be and here's why - A lot of people have a need for attention and ultimately love. The perception is : the better we look, the more attention and love we will get. The reality is: that is only partly true. Looking good can in some cases, cause you to atttract more "attention" but not real love. If someone truly loves you, that person has to be connected to you on a much deeper level. At this point, I feel it is enough to work out, and take good care of my skin and hair, but I would never get plastic surgery. Anything that good eating habits and excercise won't fix about my body, I will live with it. If all you are looking for is a superficial good time, then focusing on your looks is fine, but if you want real love, you have to love yourself for who you are and not just how you look. This is why so many beautiful people get dumped on and abused and they can't figure out why. Your looks can catch someone's eye, not their heart.

wow i think she looks gorgeous. as it is often said, the body is a canvas. why is cosmetic surgery frowned upon, while covering your body with piercings and tattooed okay? to each their own. this clearly makes her happy, so kudos.

Being a celebrity, it is important that we maintain ouryouthful look to be bankable. This is the police of the entertainment world.Cindy Jackson’s 52 plastic surgeries can be a good example that if a person,man or woman wanted to maintain their looks as they grow old, it is by choiceto undergo plastic surgery like liposuction, face lift, breast augmentation andthe like. I am certain that these days, people are not hesitant to undersurgery like what were mentioned above.

Her dedication to cosmetic surgery is pretty impressive. Well, she does look pretty, and in the end, it was her choice to get fifty-two surgeries. It's up to her if she wants fifty-three or more. Seriously, you can really tell the difference between her look from the 1970s to her current look.

To some extent I understand Rupert Murdoch's obsession with putting "pretty girls" al;l over his media properties (he even does it on the sidebar of his right-wing propaganda message board, Fox Nation) -- it's an old-school tabloid tradition. (Though rather dated -- dude, we're reading your paper online! One click away is actual porn!)

Still, there seems to be a peculiar obsession with excessive plastic surgery in Murdochville. Other broadcasters gave us What Not to Wear and the original Extreme Makeover, but Murdoch's version, The Swan, gave surgery to pretty much every contestant. Every woman on Fox News, and many of the men, have had absurdly obvious excesses of surgery. And on and on.

Is it Rupert's dick that dictates thi? Some Murdoch son's dick? Whose?
